But isn't the Nite Hunts a two way street? The dog and the handler? Not just the dog alone?
Dog has its job to do finding and treeing the coon. The handler's job is to know the rules, know his dog, and call the dog for what it's doing.
Tough break if a handler's mistake cost him a win, but that is part of the game. Many of handlers have cost their dogs a win by mistakes. Sometimes the best dog doesn't win because of it. But handlers have a part of the outcome as well in Nite Hunts regardless of who has the best dog.
